Suppose Maria wants to breed parakeets that are yellow with patterned feathers. However, when she bred several parakeets that were yellow with patterned feathers, she found that there were four different offspring phenotypes.

Phenotype Number
patterned yellow wings 18
solid yellow wings 6
patterned white wings 6
solid white wings 2

Number of genes and alleles?
2 genes; 2 alleles each
1 gene; 4 alleles
4 genes; 1 allele each

Which phenotypes are coded for by the same gene? Different genes are separated by semicolons?
yellow and white; patterned feathers and solid
yellow and patterned feathers; white and solid
all by the same gene
each by a separate gene

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

First let's define a few things.

An allele is a variant form of a gene, each gene can have two or more possible alleles, one inherited from each parent. The copies, however, are not necessarily the same. When the copies of a gene differ from each other, they are known as alleles. A given gene may have multiple different alleles, though only two alleles are present at the gene’s locus in any individual. Alleles can sometimes result in different phenotypes (observable traits), with certain alleles being dominant. (overriding the traits of other alleles)

Let's make a table of our bird's alleles.

We can see from the phenotype of her bird's offspring, yellow is dominant over white, and patterned is dominant over solid.

Let's use Y for dominant yellow, w for recessive white, P for dominant pattern, and s for recessive solid. I know dominant and recessive traits usualy use the same letter with recessive traits being lower case, but in this case it makes it easier to determine phenotype.

Our parent birds are dihybrid cross which involves 2 genes coding two traits, with dominant yellow pattern both represented by PPssYYww.

So look at the chart. It has then been color coded by the traits the bird will exhibit. We have:

9 birds with Patterned Yellow Wings

3 birds with Solid Yellow Wings

3 birds with Patterned White Wings

1 bird with Solid White Wings

This is the same ratio Maria found in the phenotypes of her birds.

Now we can answer the questions:

Number of genes and alleles? We can see that there are 2 genes, one gene for pattern, and one gene for color, but there are also 2 alleles the variant of the Pattern and the variant of the color.

Which phenotypes are coded for by the same gene?  

yellow and white; patterned feathers and solid - This one as you can see from the phenotype chart, and as discussed earlier, there are 2 genes, one for color, the other for pattern.

yellow and patterned feathers; white and solid

all by the same gene

each by a separate gene

Why don’t prokaryotic cells divide through mitosis?

Mitosis requires a cell membrane, and prokaryotes don’t have a cell membrane.

Mitosis and cytokinesis require cytoplasm, and prokaryotes don’t have cytoplasm.

Mitosis is division of the nucleus, and prokaryotes don’t have a nucleus.

Mitosis requires DNA and chromosomes, and prokaryotes don’t have chromosomes.

Answers

Answer:

Prokaryotes such as bacteria propagate by binary fission. ... In bacterial cells, the genome consists of a single, circular DNA chromosome; therefore, the process of cell division is simplified. Mitosis is unnecessary because there is no nucleus or multiple chromosomes. This type of cell division is called binary fission.

The emergent property is that cell is the basic unit of life, one or more cells combine to form organism. The correct option is A.

What is emergent property?

An emergent property is a distinctive feature that an entity acquires after becoming a part of a larger system.

Emergent properties aid in the adaptation of living organisms to their surroundings and enhance their likelihood of survival.

Carrying capacities for all species in an ecosystem's biological community are an emergent phenomenon of the ecosystem in its entirety because each species' food supply is a result of what happens in other parts of the ecosystem.

In the given scenario, cells being the basic fundamental structural unit of life, is forming a complete organism. This property of cell is indicating the emergent property.

Which of the following accurately describes the thermocline profile along the equator?
A. Due to constant temperatures, there's no thermocline in the tropical region. .
B. The equator is susceptible to extreme storms so the thermocline changes significantly throughout the year.
C. Due to constant temperatures, there's no thermocline in the polar regions.
D. The thermocline stays relatively stable throughout the year.

Answers

Answer:

B. The equator is susceptible to extreme storms so the thermocline changes significantly throughout the year.

Explanation:

Storms occurs on that locations where there is high temperature and high temperature is only present at the equator due to direct sunlight. So we can say that maximum storms comes at and near the regions of equator. The oceans present near the equator have a warm layer known as thermocline from where water is evaporated and the intensity of storms are also increases.

You have formulated a hypothesis: "Mangos contain more vitamin C than oranges." To test your hypothesis you measure vitamin C levels in 20 oranges and 20 mangos from trees that were grown in the same orchard under the same environmental conditions (temperature, rain, sunlight). What is the independent variable in this experiment?
Question options:
A) The amount of rain and sunlight the trees received
B) Vitamin C levels
C) The type of fruit
D) The type of soil the trees grew in

Answers

Answer:

B) the type of fruit

Explanation:

The independent variable is the value that the experimenter changes/controls. The Vitamin C levels depend on the type of fruit, so the fruit is the independent variable. Hope this helps!

The value that the experiment modifies or controls is known as the independent variable. Fruit is the independent variable because fruit types vary in their quantities of vitamin C. Thus, option B is correct.

What is the independent variable?

“X” is frequently used to indicate an independent variable. It is a variable that is independent of other variables.

The elements or circumstances that you can change in an experiment are referred to as independent variables. A dependent variable's value may be directly impacted by this variable.

The definition of an independent variable is exactly what it says. It is a stand-alone variable that is unaffected by the other variables you are attempting to assess. Age, for instance, could be an independent variable.

Anticipated to have an impact on the dependent variable. The experiment has no effect on this. It is a variable that can be altered by researchers to examine the independent variable.

Therefore, fruit is the independent variable, to vary in their quantities of vitamin C.

What do you feel really got the biotech industry started and how was it different from what came before it? g

Answers

Answer:

When the human being realized that he could use living beings or their derivatives to produce products of human interest on a large scale, the biotech industry started. This sector was different from what existed before it, because it used tiny elements such as proteins, bacteria and DNA, to manufacture the products.

Explanation:

As you may already know, biotechnology is the science that allows the use of living beings and their derivatives for the manufacture of biological products much needed in human daily life. Biotechnology has been used since the beginning by mankind. This can be seen in the manufacture of bread and wine, for example. However, this science only became something industrial, when the human being realized that it was advantageous to use organisms for the production of products on a large scale.

This was an industrial innovation, since until then, the industry did not use organisms and elements so small for the production of its products.

2. Copy/paste and align the first 5 bases of all introns. Which bases are conserved near intron start ("donor site")?

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

Introns are non-coding regions of a DNA that removed by RNA splicing prior to translation. Alignment is usually done between sequences to see and understand the identity and similarity between two or more sequences.

A region/base is said to be conserved if there is  NO change in any base in that particular region. A multiple sequence alignment (MSA) can be used to align the donor sites of all the introns to see the bases that have not "changed" (and still remained in there exact position) hence conserved across all the donor sites.

NOTE: The donor site of an intron is the 5' end, thus the first five bases in the 5' end are to be used here
